Look at Wavy Gravy now!! He is still available for adoption.🥰🐾❤️
Gravy has entered into the foster’s general population after very slow introductions. He is absolutely thriving.
Good with other cats, dogs, a total cuddle bug and still loves to play.

I don’t know why this reposted itself. But this is Oscar when I first found him. He was the one I just did an an update on. Where are they now? So sorry it must’ve been confusing. This picture is over a year and a half old.

If you feed outdoor cats, especially in public places, please remember that small choices can make a big difference in keeping them safe and ensuring they can continue to be cared for long-term. 🐾

▶️ Can the food be eaten within 30 minutes?
❌ If not, leftover food may attract wildlife or other animals that could pose a danger to the cats. What begins as an act of kindness can unintentionally create new risks for them.

▶️ Is there trash left behind, like paper plates or empty cans?
❌ Public feeding areas that become messy often lead to complaints. Keeping the space clean and respectful helps protect feeding spots and prevents conflict with the community.

▶️ Is your feeding setup drawing attention to the cats?
❌ Not everyone values outdoor cats the way rescuers and caretakers do. Quiet, discreet feeding can help keep colonies safer from harm and unwanted attention.

❌ Please avoid feeding cats directly out of cans. The edges are sharp and have the potential to cause injury.

Loving community cats means more than feeding them—it means protecting them, respecting shared spaces, and helping ensure they can continue to be cared for tomorrow. ❤️

“𝙄 𝙟𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙙𝙤𝙣’𝙩 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙩𝙞𝙢𝙚.”
Honestly?
𝙉𝙚𝙞𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧 𝙙𝙤 𝙬𝙚.

Nobody doing TNR has extra time laying around.

😪The people trapping after work?
Tired.

😪The people setting alarms every 45 minutes to check traps?
Tired.

😪The people driving before sunrise to clinics?
Tired.

😪The people answering messages while cooking dinner, raising kids, working jobs, and barely holding their own life together?
Tired.

𝗡𝗼𝗯𝗼𝗱𝘆 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲.
People just decide something matters enough to make room for it anyway.

That’s the part we wish more people understood.
𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝘁𝗶𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗱 𝗰𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝗲𝗲?
𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗯𝗼𝗱𝘆 𝗺𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲.

❗️Somebody rearranged their schedule.
❗️Lost sleep.
❗️Spent money.
❗️Sweated their ass off in the heat.
❗️Learned how to trap.
❗️Drove across counties.
❗️Was frustrated.
❗️Overwhelmed.
❗️Burnt out.
…𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗻’𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝗰𝘂𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗱 𝘂𝗽.

Because once you truly SEE the problem, it becomes really hard to ignore it.

This work is not built on people with unlimited time, money, or energy.

It’s built on ordinary people deciding:
“Someone needs to do something… so I guess it’s gonna be me.”

And honestly?
That mindset is the only reason any of this works at all.

The people making a difference in this community are not super human.

They’re exhausted, ordinary people who decided these “unowned” cats still mattered anyway.

Found kittens outside? Before you pick them up — mom is probably nearby. 🐱

The best thing you can do is leave them where they are and give mom a chance to come back.

Not sure what to do next? We've got you covered.

Where are they now?

Found by the school dumper, covered in burrs and fleas, less than 2lbs, and all alone.
Scooped this little guy up and he was adopted by a friend. He lives the best life! He has a big cat brother that he keeps on his toes. Rescue.
